History®: Legends of War
will be hitting stores on the 8th March and available on Xbox 360,
PS3, PC and PS Vita.
This brand new trailer shows the advanced game mechanics and
realistic 3D environments featured in History®: Legends of
War.
HLOW was created with an extensive single player campaign mode
(with over 20 missions), set in historical locations and
incorporating real life missions and situations - this gives you
the unique opportunity to command your troops through genuine
battle environments and operations.
Gameplay combines the mechanics of a turn based strategy with
the depth of a tactical warfare game, simultaneously bringing in
RPG elements - lead your units from the bloody beaches of Normandy
to the war torn streets of Berlin, developing their abilities along
the way.
Compared with strategy kings XCOM and Company of Heroes, HLOW
brings a whole new level of depth and realism to the genre. With
over 30 unique unit types (including Infantry, Armoured Vehicles
and Aircraft) and a vast armoury of weapons to choose from, each
mission poses a unique challenge as you need to choose the right
units and weaponry for the task!
HLOW has been developed by strategy gaming experts Slitherine
and builds on the huge success of History Great Battles Medieval.
The tie in with the History Channel brings a level of depth
unparalleled in the strategy game genre and introduces a level of
detail that was previously only imaginable in the blockbuster movie
genre!
Features:
- 4 Operations, 21 missions, 44 battlefield maps & 36
different types of unit
- Varied mission types, including attack, infiltration, defence,
escort and sabotage.
- Unique combination of 2 strategy game mechanics: high-level
strategic management and turn-based tactics.
- 44 different battlefield maps consisting of 3 different
environments: countryside, snow and cities.
- 36 different types of units: command infantry, armoured
vehicles and aircrafts, special units (including snipers, elite
forces and commandos) fighters and bombers.
- Go Head-to-Head with the Hotseat multiplayer mode.
For those of you who might not have a PS3 PQube are giving you
the opportunity to win a brand new console
